Hello, Thanks for the reply. I apologize for being uncler. I only realized that now that I am reading my initial mail again. The part:

I > would like to be able to run this before the plugin goal is runing. actually means that I would like to do this automatically when the plugin is installed. So what I actually need to know if it's possible with conventional Maven weapons to do these operations (download + unpack + install with a group/artifactId/etc in local repo) automatically. Thanks again.
